| 20080200744 | TRIMERISATION AND OLIGOMERISATION OF OLEFINS USING A CHROMIUM BASED CATALYST - The invention provides a mixed heteroatomic ligand for an oligomerisation of olefins catalyst, which ligand includes at least three heteroatoms, of which at least one heteroatom is sulfur and at least two heteroatoms are not the same. The invention also provides a multidentate mixed heteroatomic ligand for an oligomerisation of olefins catalyst, which ligand includes at least three heteroatoms of which at least one is a sulfur atom. The ligand may also contain, in addition to sulfur, at least one nitrogen or phosphorous heteroatom. | 08-21-2008 |

| 20110045870 | Wireless phone device flashlight - A high-intensity LED is integrated into a wireless phone device to provide an extremely convenient flashlight functionality at the ready for a user in possession of their wireless phone, particularly useful in emergency situations. When an emergency or other need emerges suddenly and while the user is otherwise unable to obtain a conventional flashlight, use of a wireless phone flashlight provides a useful source of light for both comfort and safety of the user of the wireless phone device. In another aspect of the invention, the wireless phone flashlight is a peripheral device connected to a digital port of the wireless phone. Alternatively, the flashlight is formed in such a shape as to fit into an external memory card slot of a target wireless phone (e.g., in the shape of a SmartCard), drawing power and even control from the wireless phone through the connector otherwise intended for a memory card. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20120104324 | CHALCOGENIDE SOLAR CELLS - A precursor material for forming a film of a group IB-IIIA-chalcogenide compound and a method of making this film are disclosed. The film contains group IB-chalcogenide nanoparticles and/or group IIIA-chalcogenide nanoparticles and/or nanoglobules and/or nanodroplets and a source of extra chalcogen. Alternatively, the film may contain core-shell nanoparticles having core nanoparticles include group IB and/or IIIA elements, which are coated with a shell of elemental chalcogen material. The method of making a film of group IB-IIIA- chalcogenide compound includes mixing the nanoparticles and/or nanoglobules and/or nanodroplets to form an ink, depositing the ink on a substrate, heating to melt the extra chalcogen and to react the chalcogen with the group IB and group IIIA elements and/or chalcogenides to form a dense film. | 05-03-2012 |

| 20090300552 | APPLICATION NAVIGATION - A method for operating a user interface for switching between computer applications is provided. The method may include displaying first, second and third navigation controls. The first navigation control may include entity selectors, the second navigation control may include application selectors, and the third navigation control may include sub-application selectors. The application selectors may be associated with the entities in the first navigation control and the sub-application selectors may be associated with the application selectors. An application associated with sub-application selector may be launched upon selecting the sub-application selector. The state of an application may be stored and retrieved upon switching between applications so as to enable fast switching between applications. | 12-03-2009 |

| 20090086471 | ILLUMINATED LANDSCAPE MODULE FOR EXISTING EDGING SYSTEM - An illuminated edging module is provided for attaching a light strand (e.g. a rope light) to an existing conventional edging. The edging module includes a housing comprising an elongated connector portion adapted to removably couple the edging module to the upper portion of the existing edging and a housing upper portion containing the light strand. The housing upper portion can be translucent or transparent. The housing portion and the connector portion are integrally formed of plastic and can be co-extruded so that they are made of different materials. A translucent or transparent coupler formed as a slotted cylinder and surrounding the housing upper portion can be used to join adjacent sections of the illuminated edging module. One or more sleeves can be provided with a coloring to color the light emitted from the light strand when it is attached over the housing upper portion. | 04-02-2009 |

| 20110084063 | ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR POWERING INDUCTORS FOR INDUCTION HARDENING - An arrangement for induction hardening a part including a pair of separate inductors electrically isolated from each other and configured to substantially surround a part when brought into close juxtaposition with each other. The inductor sections are powered by respective secondary inductor loops brought into close juxtaposition with a primary inductor loop connected to an ac power source which induces an ac current in each inductor section. | 04-14-2011 |

| 20080238726 | COMPRESSED STANDARDIZED KEYBOARD - A keyboard of reduced size is provided in which multiple characters are assigned to each of the primary keys. The selection of the characters to be assigned to each specific primary key is based on the touch typing rules associated with a specific standardized keyboard, preferably allowing at least three rows of keys to be reduced to a single row of keys. A disambiguating system is used to interpret which of the characters and/or symbols assigned to a particular key is intended, typically by applying a set of disambiguating rules to generated input sequences. | 10-02-2008 |
